Well, that wasn’t very pleasant now, was it? The spirit-flattening result, the loss of precious points, the inevitable Daniel Sturridge injury and the inspired opposition goalkeeper meant we had the perfect LFC Bullshit Bingo card. However, whilst a degree of irritation and perhaps even a modicum of irrational rage were both fair reactions, almost...
Two games within 48 hours was always going to be a mighty ask, and at the end the exertions showed as Liverpool dropped two points on the road at Sunderland.
This is how the Reds fared.
Simon Mignolet (6.5) - Had a busier first-half than he would have liked. Made a couple of big saves, especially...
Remember those blues standards where the poor unfortunate warbler always seemed to have been abandoned by his beloved? Remember how he was invariably quite annoyed about this turn of events and had therefore picked up his ol’ gee-tar to pen said morose ditty? Well, I couldn’t help but be reminded of those powerful tunes...

Liverpool's 1-0 victory over Manchester City was a big step in their title bid, confirming the progress they have made this season.

Nathaniel Clyne - 7

Liverpool put in a strong display at Anfield against Stoke, as the Potters were dispatched, in a 4-1 victory. Jon Walters gave Stoke an early lead before Adam Lallana and Roberto Firmino sent Liverpool into the break the happier side.
A Gianelli Imbula own goal and Daniel Sturridge's first Premier League goal of the season...
Everyone associated with the club will admit that the 2015-16 Premier League season was a disappointing one for Liverpool. The club finished in eighth place, its worst finishing position since 2011-12 and, before that, 1993-94. Yet Liverpool fans are full of hope for the 2016-17 season, primarily due to it being Jurgen Klopp’s first...
They say all goalkeepers are a little bit crazy. Then again, Simon Mignolet might be the exception to this rule. Steady, but rarely spectacular and for every calamity there’s a world-class save thrown in for good measure. He is a bookies worst nightmare; no-one can predict which Mignolet will show up on the day....
Sidelined defender Mamadou Sakho is facing a nervous 24 hours after UEFA gave Liverpool notification on Friday that the central defender had tested positive for a banned substance after the Europa League fixture versus Manchester United on March 17th. A decision, by Europe’s governing body, is set to be announced on Tuesday (April 26th).
Whilst the exact...
It was written in the stars, with an almost certain inevitability to it, that Liverpool and Borussia Dortmund would be drawn together in the Europa League quarter-finals. For Jürgen Klopp and everyone associated with Dortmund it is a very emotional tie; you only have to look back at his final game at the Westfalenstadion...
